what about processing time?

[Misria]

When do the process really begin? from the time I sent the application or from the time when the embassy started working in  he file as when my husband received his AOR?  For exemple: let's say that they say a application takes average of 6 months to process.. this is just an exemple.  The process begins when?

Hope my question is not too confusing.
thank you.

Processing time starts from the AOR date.  So if average times are 6 months, it's from the date the visa office began processing the file.

Thank you for the quick reply.
